I’m Addicted

It’s official. I’m addicted to Pinterest. 
What is Pinterest? It’s essentially a virtual pinboard where you can create collections of things you love and “follow” collections created by other people. People are using Pinterest to collect and share all sorts of things including my favorites – interior design, home organization and entertaining. 
If you are a visual person like me, you will love it. Feel free to follow me too at https://pinterest.com/simplifiedbee/.
Here are some of the images I “pinned” or “repinned” today and thought I would share with you.

The Best Ways to Organize Kid Rooms at Centsational Girl

{Designer Katie Ridder}
Much of my organizing & design business focuses on helping young families de-clutter and organize their homes, while still being style-savvy. So naturally I was over-the-moon when Kate  of Centsational Girl asked me to guest blog and give her readers tips on keeping kid rooms organized. Being a stylish & organized mom herself, Kate’s throwing in a couple more tips of her own. Be sure to stop by – ‘The Best Ways to Organize Kid Rooms’.

Here’s a more important reason to stop by Kate’s blog. Wanting to ‘fixing up spaces for those who really need it, not those who can afford it’, Kate recently announced she has teamed up with Committee on the Shelterless (or COTS) and has adopted a house in need. The project’s name is the Alma Project. Here is a brief description:

centsational girls alma project

“We called the The Alma Project is the transformation of a fixer upper house into a comfortable functional home for women who desperately need it.  Living inside the Alma House are three single mothers, previously homeless, who reside for free on the condition that they are learning skills, stabilizing their lives, attending counseling, and remain drug and alcohol free.  These mothers are saving their money from their part time jobs and raising their children as best as they can.  They have no time or money to fix up this house.  They are real women with real needs who need real solutions. “ 

If you would like to donate money or materials to this wonderful project, please visit The Alma Project.

Keeping the people of Japan in my prayers,
